Rhody Roundup: Chris Brown, X Factor

(WPRI) - Local Mom Blogger Audrey McClelland, Hot 106 Morning Host Deanna Cruz and WPRI.com Reporter Ted Nesi join the Rhode Show for this week's Rhody Roundup.

The Rhody Roundup is about the hot topics that are making headlines this week.

This week's topics:

1. The National Enquirer is the subject of a lot of chatter today for publishing a photo of Whitney Houston in an open casket on the cover of its new issue. Did they go too far?

2. Chris Brown is back in the spotlight. First, he and Rihanna collaborate on two songs this week, fueling rumors that they're getting back together. Also, police are checking out a woman's claim that Brown stole her iPhone outside of a South Beach night club. If this proves to be true, it could mean more legal trouble for the singer, who is still on probation for assaulting Rihanna.

3. Lastly, some great news for Providence, as Fox announces that the X Factor will hold auditions in the city in May. What do you think this means for Providence?
